What is wrong with registering using Yahoo?

[mikerock]

Teach me. From what i can figure, if the buyer has a yahoo id...you can give them full control of the domain name.

nothing if everything goes smoothly.

if you have problems, then that's where it starts to hurt. yahoo has a very slow reponse system!

That's why you call them and you have a response in under 3 minutes.

Well it depends. I've used Yahoo's domain services a lot lately ($2.99/yr), trying it out.

The 24 hour service's remarkable! Still dunno much about the rest of its services though :hehe:

Even though I've never been a big fan of Yahoo!, I still trust large companies such as itself

Yeh, Yahoo is very busy. Thats why it takes so long to get a response.
Just call them.

Also, when yahoo have specials, once people register doami nnames there, they put the price up to like 10$ O_O

well this wasnt my thread but... thanks for the advice guys

yahoo can also charge your credit card whenever they want- they charged mine 4 times just to sign up for "free" yahoo auctions.

Yes that'a a nice thread. I posted my experience there too... took them 3weeks+ to transfer my domain...

It can't be the problem that they're too busy, since transferring does NOT require manual management, but automatic transmit. So, either their server's overloaded or they suck.

 

[dgridley]

That'd be my guess...

or they suck.

yeah i think they just suck....LOL

Their customer service isn't the best either. I bought a domain off of a guy and we never got to go through with it because yahoo kept emailing back crap answers, things that weren't even related to the question.

Q:"I would like to transfer my domain to another person"
A:"We understand you would like to sign up for a free yahoo mail account..."
